Cattleya loddigesii - flowering for the first time
The nice thing about growing seedlings is seeing their flowers for the first time. This and the one I posted days ago come from different parents.

I agree, Mauro, it's great fun to be the first to see a seedling flower. This one is simply gorgeous, but then, what orchid isn't?

"Pink Perfection" This is a beautiful pink. I don't have one to my collection but one of these days I will come across one I want to add. I like to see what I am buying and don't usually buy internet, especially orchids.
